The ranger was a bit surprised to see us; seems like they do not get many visitors who are not campers. A day visit to the park may include a picnic or stop at the lake. A must-do is the hike to see the petrified...More

Very unique area to hike, bring sunscreen as there is hardly any shade on the trail. The colors of the petrified wood are beautiful, greens, blues, oranges ect. When you get to the top of the mesa the trail becomes less strenuous. The is a...More

We weren't expecting petrified wood to be so colorful; it was fantastic! Don't skip the Trail of Sleeping Rainbows. It is a little steeper but most of the petrified wood is along this path. It's definitely worth a bit of uphill.

This site was a complete surprise but a "no brainer" to visit. We like petrified stuff!
We could not stay near as long as this place deserves. A family could have a pretty full week using this location as a base of operations. Check out...More

Great little State Park with lots of picnic tables under a roof for shade. Perfect hike trail, different lengths, for all levels of hiking. Be sure to visit the rock shop just outside the boundaries of the Park.

This park was an unplanned stop but we are glad we visited! The lake is just lovely! We did the longer 2 mile RT trail and saw a lot of the beautiful petrified wood specimens. Extraordinary! The views of the lake from the trail are...More

It depends on what you like to do. We just got back two days ago. This time we backpacked into Coyote Gulch. It's absolutely stunning (my fourth time going). There's some great closer day hikes: Spooky and Peek-a-Boo slot canyons, lower calf creek falls. Thus is a country full of slot canyons and natural bridges and arches. Google them and see if it interests you. I will say it's super hot (105 degrees by 11 am), so you'll have to be on the trail by 6am with plenty of water. We ran into two groups who ran out of water and were in pretty bad shape. This area is one of my favorites in Utah but extremely different from Zion and far less crowded.
